BOSTON

We had so much fun in Boston, MA!!! It was our first family vacation. We were there 8/4-8/8.

We took a boat ride and followed the Freedom trail from the USS Constitution to Boston Common. On this trip Cooper was on his first boat, subway, and taxi. We saw street performers by Quincy Market, the Old North Church, Paul Revere's House, and the Bunker Hill Monument. We loved listening to the street musicians in the park. 

 

We had great Italian food and seafood. Chelsea loved the clam chowder and Italian rice balls.  Tom loved the lobster rolls. We checked out The Barking Crab, Legal Seafood, Mike's Pastry, James Hook, and a festival in the North End.

We went to Fenway Park to watch the Red Sox take on the Yankees.  The game was broadcast as the Sunday night game on ESPN. It was a classic match up. It was a long game (almost 4 hours) that ended with Mariano Rivera blowing a save and the Red Sox winning in the 10th inning 3-2. Cooper wore a tee-shirt that said, "The Yankees stink just like my diaper." Everyone thought he was so cute. Random strangers were coming up asking to take his picture.
